Beautifully penned, Elke. Into the book it belongs! Clever write my friend, I dig this. Thank you! I’m not one for typical critique that’s for sure. But what I am is supportive to those in this community who share their craft to tell their story about their journey in this life. It’s not always easy to tell certain stories in my life, but sometimes it’s needed therapy. I try to look through that same lens when my fellow poets and poetesses share their stories. I want everyone to feel encouraged to write and to feel that someone out there is listening/reading their work. Most of all I want them to know that they’re never alone. Appreciate you, Elke.

That’s what I also do. I try to transform my personal experiences and my reflections on spirituality, philosophy, politics, love and several other areas of life into literature.
I’ve noticed that for many people it is easier to criticize than to offer praise and recognition. That is not only sad, it also contributes to keeping our whole planet on a lower level of energy. Every word we speak and even every thought we have influence the way the earth develops. The negative energy of envy, hatred or greed results in more acts of violence. People like you my friend, are healers of the whole system. It’s not only about important political decisions, most of all it’s about the little acts of loving kindness each and every one of us can perform to make this world a better place. Thank you I myself have a penchant for the dark, morbid, and sarcastic side of writing., dear Damien! May your attitude be contagious!

Also on behalf of Sappho, I would like to thank you for listening.
The lyrics are about something we both care deeply about. And she was the one to write this inspiring poem. And artwork of course.Thank you so much for your very fine compliments. They go a long way!
Kind regards, Sappho and Gus

I bow most reverently to Sappho ‘n Gus 🙏
Stunningly beautiful, You Two, in every sense of the word.
Artwork choice, title, and the Envelope Form in its abba rhyme-scheme (with spot-on and soft rhymes), work perfectly together, just as writing and musical skills came together in rendering this lovely, impacting virtual masterpiece in homage to Mother Earth’s ever dwindling beauty and life sustaining wonders.Simply, an enthralling co-write … love it deeply!
Thank you both! ⁓ Richard🖌Nits:
(Check V1-L3, “get” may have been meant as “yet”. Final stanza, L1, should “plead” be “plea”?) 🤓-

There is a lot of work to be done to raise awareness of nature’s uniqueness and to call for its protection. But we won’t give up!
Thank you from the bottom of my heart, my dear fellow campaigner, for your wonderful comment!
